Daily Intelligence System: Financial Independence

Chapter 670: Chapter 319: Gu Hongsheng’s Fury and Yu Dongdong’s Regret!

Since Zhang Chao acknowledged his ancestry and returned to his biological parents,

his whole demeanor has undergone significant changes.

Previously, Zhang Chao was just like Jiang Tao, Liu Zhiyuan, Shan Yufei, and the others, all struggling as Beijing drifters.

Everyone was a predestined laborer.

Even during Chinese New Year, the outfits worn to impress relatives,

would cost no more than 2000 yuan for the entire set.

Moreover, they would only be brought out in their hometown, serving as mere props.

Once back in Beijing, they’d be stashed away, with everyday clothes taking their place.

Times have changed; now Zhang Chao’s LV belt alone costs four to five thousand.

From underwear to outerwear, his daily attire costs seven to eight thousand, sometimes even ten thousand.

Moreover, he doesn’t have to pay for any of it himself.

Zhang Chao’s biological mother, Kang Huijun, has taken it upon herself to provide him with clothes, shoes, and socks all year round.

After all, they’d been separated for over twenty years, nearly thirty.

Kang Huijun feels a profound guilt towards Zhang Chao and seeks to compensate as much as possible.

It’s been just over a month since the mother and son reunited.

Kang Huijun has bought him a house, a car, and even given him a profitable foot massage parlor.

Branded clothes and shoes arrive at Zhang Chao’s home in abundance, like they cost nothing.

By now, Zhang Chao has indeed become the well-doted son in his mother’s eyes.

Aside from his attire, his management training in recent times and the flattery he receives at the store,

have completely erased his past downtrodden aura, giving him a hint of a domineering presence.

One could say, the Zhang Chao standing before everyone now is a completely new Zhang Chao.

In just over a month,

he’s transformed from a poor rural lad to a wealthy second-generation Master Jing!

Through his parents’ actions, his residency has been transferred to Beijing, officially making him a Beijing citizen.

Regarding Zhang Chao’s dramatic change of fate, Liu Zhiyuan and Shan Yufei, his good friends, are left only with envy.

They used to drive trucks together and sell fruit at the market as impoverished buddies.

Now, you’re a wealthy second-generation from a prestigious Beijing family?

Who wouldn’t be envious of that!

Zhang Chao has basically landed the script of a feel-good novel’s main character!

"Chairman Ren, this gentleman is none other than the eldest young master of Xia Hualiangzi, renowned in Beijing."

"Treat his girlfriend well, and perhaps Eldest Young Master Zhang will have a chance to return the favor in the future."

Jiang Tao half-seriously, half-jokingly added, offering a brief introduction of Zhang Chao.

As the saying goes, people lift others with praises.

At the right time, giving your friend a good word in front of outsiders is quite necessary.

"The eldest young master of Xia Hualiangzi? A pleasure, truly a pleasure! Our branch previously had some cooperation with your company for a while."

Sure enough, upon hearing Jiang Tao’s introduction of Zhang Chao, Ren Jianjun’s attitude warmed distinctly.

"Really? I’m not quite aware of past matters as I’ve only been managing the Longze Store in Pingchang District for just over a month."

With Zhang Chao’s current status, he can now deal with people like Ren Jianjun calmly and eloquently.

"Having the opportunity to dine with President Zhang today is truly a destined event."

"Moreover, President Zhang is also Xiao Fang’s boyfriend, which adds another layer of connection."

"President Zhang has good taste, choosing the most beautiful flower from our branch."

With that one sentence, Ren Jianjun managed to praise Zhang Chao and Fang Qi, proving his high conversational skill typical of a seasoned socializer.

Seeing Ren Jianjun being so courteous to her boyfriend, Fang Qi felt secretly pleased and proud, holding onto Zhang Chao’s arm even tighter.

Simultaneously, she felt even more grateful to her brother-in-law for introducing her to this ideal partner.

After exchanging pleasantries at the entrance, Ren Jianjun invited the three of them into the store.

The group took turns ordering food, with Jiang Tao and Zhang Chao not holding back, picking what they liked.

Price wasn’t a concern.

Anyway, whatever this meal costs, chances are Ren Jianjun can claim it back later.

After ordering, they waited for about ten minutes.

The group chatted and laughed, enjoying each other’s company.

Soon, several servers wheeled in two carts of food into the dining room, placing all the dishes onto the large round table.

Ren Jianjun took this lunch with Jiang Tao and Zhang Chao seriously; the beverages included bottles costing over 3000 each.

At Ren Jianjun’s invitation, the feast officially commenced.

Everyone chatted and laughed, with topics ranging from the north to south, from current events to finance and investments.

During the gathering, Zhang Chao and Ren Jianjun even discussed some business collaboration projects.

For instance, transferring Xia Hualiangzi’s corporate account to their branch and switching the salary card to Longze Branch’s card.

The Xia Hualiangzi store Zhang Chao currently manages in Pingchang District has a monthly revenue of around 5 million.

The store’s dozens of technicians earn over a million each month.

People do love massages and foot care.

In terms of competence, Xia Hualiangzi ranks quite high among businesses represented by the Longze Branch.

Everyone chatted and laughed freely, making light conversation, enjoying the amicable atmosphere.

...

Unlike the lively and joyous atmosphere with Jiang Tao and others here.

In the study room of a certain three-story villa in the Three Thousand Villas District, Pingchang District.

Gu Hongsheng, staring at the computer screen’s content, veins bulging on his forehead, was ablaze with anger.

Bang!!!

Gu Hongsheng slammed a fist on the table, his eyes glinting with intense ruthlessness!
